Hi, all!

It is good and in same time discrepant feature.

pros
user now don't need to make every time 'svn up' and will have fresh w3af

cons
1. svn up from trunk is not always good idea because it can make problems for 
user (trunk usually is for development)
2. what about packaged versions of w3af, e.g. debs in Debian/Ubuntu? User must 
have root privs to write
to folders where w3af is installed and furthermore it will break conception of 
app's packaging and updates on such distribs
